and if you want to replace it from the win-me cd, use msconfig and extract it from;
cd drive letter:\win9x\win_17.cab
you'll probably have to browse your way to it, highlight it, and then extract it to c:\windows\system

You can also put in your Windows ME restore CD I think its Disc # 2 it will give you a choice and you want to choose just install windows do not reformat unless that is your intention.
